01:21:40 ER: all of past Egan's projects are dumb and lame and I don't want to work on them, except for refine which is perfect and beautiful, and deserves to be worked on by a hypothetical future Egan who is actually good things, not me. So while I wait for that to happen I'll just watch videos on youtube. Sound good?

01:35:10 syv: Hypothetical perfect Egan is actually just a slightly more experienced Egan, and current Egan, being aware of this, should endeavour to become more akin to SMEE, by writing more stuff for Demongame.

01:44:34 ER: "why are you still here? you've been watching a smash montage for like 9 minutes go do something else."
01:47:46 sy: What's the next thing you've got to do for demonsgame?
01:48:13 ER:
paris's thing, from his perspective and demonsperspective.
01:50:00 sy: Where is
Paris' character? Who else is around him?
01:50:24 ER: a corpse. that's kinda a theme.
01:52:36 sy: What does
Paris' char think of the corpse? What does the corpse look like? Where is the corpse located?
01:52:54 sy: Answer all those questions in reverse order and the
Paris half is finished.
01:58:14 ER: well, that's not nessesary because I've already described those things.
01:59:00 sy: Then what else do you need to do?
02:00:00 ER: figure out what loot the corpse has on it, mostly. And figure out what the room looks like to a bunch of alien entities.
02:01:34 sy: Who was the corpse? Where are they, why were they there? If it's still too general for an inv, determine a few basic useful things a person might have, and roll to see how many of them are in the inventory.
02:02:13 sy: For the latter, what senses do they use? Colors, human vision, scent, shape? Describe those things in as detached a way as you can manage.
02:03:07 ER: they're not questions that I really have difficulty answering.
02:03:45 sy: Then why aren't you answering them?
02:06:38 syv: Now I can pat myself on the back and feel proud, even though you're the one doing all the work! I'd make a great manager.
02:06:49 ER: probably the montage video saying "now go do something else" at the end
02:42:26 ER: fine, just keep rolling fives for luck, why not. :I
02:45:27 ER: but nvm, RGU just rolled a 4 on 3d6
02:50:32 ER: it's GentleFish. obviously.
02:58:33 syv: Maybe
Paris stole his luck.
02:59:05 ER: though the five is also pretty much the reason why gentle is having fun now...
03:00:04 ER: Four means that he's not able to use a weapon desgined to be used by a small crew. :P
03:26:52 ER: welp, guess I can post this thread now.
03:28:14 syv: ...and I can't look at it. ._.
03:29:08 ER: this project is TOTALLY not victim of scope creep~
03:30:32 syv: Kill off the characters quickly, so you have less work!

08:13:12 ER: I've decided to "just" play one run of slay the spire before going to bed
08:14:39 ER: I've constructed a somewhat silly ironclad deck.
08:14:54 ER: which does involve BURNING EVERYTHING
08:17:09 Devastator: so did everything burn?
08:17:39 ER: well, burnt the act 2 boss to the ground with lots of exhausting stuff.
08:19:10 Devastator: also, doing birdgame today.

08:21:43 Topic set by Remalle!Variety@i2246816zi629tu21.vc.shawcable.net [Tuesday 03 January 2017, 06:26:56]
08:37:57 ER: ah, died just to getting cocky
08:40:12 ER: decided to fight an act 3 elite with low health when I was already having trouble with the normal act 3 enemies.
08:41:23 ER: fiendfire is a plain fun card.
08:42:12 ER: it's an attack that exausts every card in your hand and then deals damage for each card exausted.
08:43:03 ER: Exhausted cards are basically removed from the game for that fight, and there's a very satisfying animation to go with it.
08:43:36 ER: you play fiendfire, your whole hand goes up in smoke, and the enemy takes a billion damage.
08:44:13 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
09:38:16 Devastator: Wow,
PW's rolling well.
10:41:27 Devastator: And I think I finally figured out what the Kingkiller Chronicles is about.
11:36:55 Devastator: "What is even the point of being a cleric if Divine Revelations can't change your mind?"
12:31:31 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
12:34:15 Devastator: Sorry for the brief update,
syv. I'll tell you why the god of life is so busy if you'd like. It's nothing important.
12:35:18 syv: What were the centaurs called again? Longstriders?
12:36:34 syv: Heh. Same meaning, really, but as different as words get.
12:36:54 Devastator: "They move fast, but they have to walk everywhere."
12:37:51 Devastator: Two reasons. One related to the god's spheres, and one because it's a perfectionist busy crafting a planet, and it's going to have to spend a few days fixing whatever tiny things you changed.
12:39:00 Devastator: going to have to roll.
12:39:02 syv: Before seeing your explanation, even.
12:39:24 syv: I hope Mort doesn't just get booted without any godly favour being granted.
12:39:44 Devastator: Just rolled to see if you thought of that.. because that's what you kinda asked to do.
12:40:42 Devastator: You still wouldn't get nothing, but it wouldn't be much.
12:41:30 syv: To be fair, that's Mort, and how Mort would react, but yeah I'd rather he not get a pittance or nothing.
12:42:12 Devastator: Well, you'd get a pretty minor buff which wouldn't be useless, but yeah, it's not a lot.
13:36:58 er has joined #einsteinianroulette
13:43:05 Devastator laments the passing of my radiactive bees.
13:43:15 Devastator: Yeah, he was talking about it earlier.
13:46:29 er: Got a win with the robot guy, using a deck that relied on a bunch of powers, against the act 3 boss who buffs every time you play a power.
13:46:51 syv: I'd be curious to see a stream, if you'll be able to stream within the next ~seven hours.
13:47:46 er: Not for right now, but probably some time in the next seven hours.

19:18:58 ER: so far to day I've eaten oatmeal, had a doctor appointment, felt sick, vomited up a stomachful of oatmeal, felt better, went to have a sandwich, and tried to apply for medicaid.
19:19:42 ER: maybe I succeeded, maybe I failed. Hopefully someone will find the time to tell me which eventually!
19:20:34 ER: long story short, think I can stream slay the spire now
19:21:00 ER: unless something decides to randomly break, which isn't LIKELY, but very possible!
19:22:26 syv: I just finished watching the latest DaS:R speedrun.
19:23:16 ER: is it shy in front of obs or something?
19:26:09 ER: it seems to crash on the main menu if I put it in windowed mode and leave it unfocused
19:29:16 syv: But not videoing. And it stopped.
19:30:08 syv: No, it's just 540p blackness.
19:32:26 syv: "The Twitch Machine got unplugged. [...]"
19:33:36 ER: wasn't actually streaming while fixing it :P
19:34:41 ER: we have the classic three classes: fighter, rogue, magic robot
19:35:24 syv: Robot is mageish, I guess?
19:35:34 syv: Hmm. This looks interesting.
19:38:54 ER: so, that was a fairly non-standard opening :P
19:39:30 ER: one of my options for starting blessing made the first 3 fights have 1HP, making them trivial
19:40:01 ER: and I saw a path that would take me to an elite monster with less than 3 fights before it
19:40:02 syv: Though it didn't look like their Max HP would've been all that much worse.
19:40:18 ER: so that was a really hard fight, but I pretty much cheated it :P
19:42:17 ER: this will be a good run provided I can get strong enough to beat the first boss
19:42:37 syv: How do powers differ from attacks?
19:43:12 ER: powers are things that you play once per fight, and they get added as a status or your character
19:43:42 syv: So fire breathing would've stuck around and continually dealt damage every round you used attacks?
19:43:46 ER: pretty much, they add a permanant buff and remove themselves from your deck for the duration of the fight.
19:44:02 ER: fire breathing isn't a super good one tho
19:44:21 syv: That sounds really good. How do used cards work? Lost forever, or reshuffled?
19:45:19 syv: So something that doesn't stick around overall improves your deck, least in long fights.
19:45:53 syv: ...Though then again, the one you picked is way better than strike, which is most of your deck.
19:46:04 ER: one power is called demon form, and it makes it so that you gain 2 strength at the start of your turn.
19:46:18 ER: strike and defend are crap cards
19:46:52 syv: I presume Block works as ablative HP which doesn't stick around between fights?
19:47:15 ER: you lose block at the start of your turn, normally
19:47:49 ER: well, it's better than losing HP
19:48:21 ER: ironclad does heal 6HP after each fight, which is nice
19:48:43 ER: silent needs to focus more on fully blocking and getting in damage where you can
19:51:11 ER: it only applies to skills, so you can't use it to exhaust strikes
19:51:15 syv: Flash of steal looks good.
19:51:29 ER: the card types are attack, skill, power, status, and curse
19:53:25 ER: so, this guy is interesting
19:53:56 ER: he gains 2 strength each time you play a skill. Amost all block cards are skills.
19:53:56 syv: Is that attack for 9, minus 5, so 4 dealt? Or attack for 14-5=9?
19:58:06 ER: *realizes that I haven't taken like, any damage mitigation cards at all*
19:58:18 ER: feel like I've been offered only attacks.
19:59:39 ER: 0x4 because I stole so much of its strength
20:00:20 syv: Who needs defense when you can just cripple your enemies?
20:00:41 ER: I don't have any cards which inflict Weak, either. :V
20:01:56 ER: yeah, guess two upgraded disarms is pretty good defence though
20:03:50 ER: limit break is good, except I have no way to generate strength yet :P
20:04:22 ER: I forgot to use any potions
20:04:44 syv: Extra strength seems good, no?
20:05:42 syv: And the one troll option that provides no second choices at all.
20:06:23 ER: artifact blocks atatus effects
20:06:41 ER: and it doesn't lose block at the end of its turn. and it loves to make more
20:08:19 ER: getting a feed is probably not worth taking at least 10 damage right now
20:08:49 ER: "no block cards, but you can have another upgraded disarm!"
20:08:58 syv: Headbutt also seems strong.
20:10:15 syv: "Gain an artifact which buffs you upon being cursed. Also get a 50% chance of being cursed."
20:14:51 syv: Wow. Feed has really been doing work.
20:17:57 ER: feel no pain + juggernaut + fiendfire
20:18:22 syv: ...Very good, since you have 41/92 HP.
20:20:49 syv: Confusion seems more like a buff.
20:21:08 ER: it randomizes between 0 and 3
20:21:23 ER: most cards cost 1, so it's MOSTLY a debuff
20:21:28 syv: So a 50% chance of your best cards being cheaper.
20:21:51 ER: there is a relic which makes you perpetually confused though
20:21:58 ER: along with drawing 2 extra cards
20:22:06 syv: Heh, I could see a confusion build where you choose as many high cost cards as possible.
20:27:42 syv: Hah, I just caught that it's a "book of stabbing"
20:28:04 syv: A book of stabbing itself, apparently.
20:28:20 ER: bronze scales is pretty good
20:28:24 syv: Does it stack with itself?
20:29:07 syv: There's your defense card, then.
20:29:14 ER: silent has a power called "caltrops" which acts like bronze scales
20:29:38 syv: ...Though, I guess it relies on you exhausting cards, and that'll run iut.
20:30:10 syv: Are there any full heals in this game?
20:30:14 ER: yeah, I don't have all that many exhaust things
20:30:28 ER: Um, not that I can think of
20:38:34 syv: Tell the logs how that fight ends for me!
20:38:36 syv has quit [Quit: Definitely a psyv.]
21:28:12 ER: four copies of disarm+ is pretty conveneint.
21:31:31 Devastator: anyway, sent out birdgame turns.
